Softly I will leave you softly

For my heart would break

If you should wake and see me go

So I leave you softly

long before you miss me

Long before your arms can beg me stay

For one more hour or one more day

After all the years

I can't bear the tears to fall

So softly as I leave you there

Softly long before you kiss me

Long before your arms can beg me stay

Or one more day

After all the years

I can't bear the tears to fall

So softly as I leave you there

As I leave I you there

As I leave I you there...
